Location
Riverwalk Village at Town Center by Richmond American Homes
We truly love our home, but unfortunately, the overall experience with what I expect to be higher-level management of the development has been disappointing. A few important issues we encountered:
1. Contract Confusion: After escrow ended and we were fully moved in, we were unexpectedly informed that one of our original contracts could not be upheld due to circumstances that were never disclosed to us beforehand. While a resolution was eventually reached, clearer communication from the beginning would have allowed us to make more informed decisions during negotiations.
2. Amenities Delay: We were originally told that community amenities, including the pool, gym, and clubhouse, would be available by July. That timeline has since been pushed back to at least September, with no firm guarantee. We’re now being told this is due to the city not insuring the amenities until a certain number of homes are completed. It’s frustrating that a large developer would overlook such a critical detail, especially while residents are paying hundreds in HOA dues for features they cannot access. ESPECIALLY during summer.
3. Construction Quality Oversights: We highly recommend hiring a third-party inspector. Ours identified numerous issues with the exterior of the home, such as loose fixtures, electrical issues, stucco cracks, and broken roof tiles. Note, you are given a small time frame to walk through the home and address any concerns, but obviously things like the roof can’t be seen. These are things a buyer shouldn’t have to catch themselves.
(Side note - the garages seem pretty small. We have small cars so we fit both in there but it seems others only leave one car in the garage and park the other on the street so there’s limited parking for guests)
Proceed with caution and do your due diligence.
